About the Instructor:

Adrienne Sarazin is a forty-year-old single mother and a former marine who relocated to Beaufort. The pursuit of a radiologic technology degree from TCL and a myriad of responsibilities connected to parenthood might for some be viewed as a rather full plate, but the energetic soul of Ms. Sarazin found a means to earn income successfully using the eBay platform. “An initial act to unload junk out of my household became a small business engine of opportunity,” Sarazin said. She has mastered a craft for online sales over the last seven years that speaks volumes about the power of an entrepreneurial spirit. She credits the user-friendly mechanism of eBay and the discovery of how brand-name attributes become a commodity in an online environment as key contributors to her success. From 1950s American kitchen glass to silver place settings to Harley Davidson motorcycles, she’s made a success at becoming a subject matter expert not only in the process, but also in understanding the product to be sold.

The Technical College of the Lowcountry is committed to a policy of equal opportunity for all qualified applicants for admissions or employment without regard to race, gender, national origin, age, religion, marital status, veteran status, disability, or political affiliation or belief.
